    Summary

    “You don’t erase damage,” Verso said; “you learn to work with it. Fill the cracks gently. Help it hold together again.”

    ////

    Six months after the explosion at the lab, Gustave returns to work with an arm gone and a brain still far from healed. The university told him to take more time. His friends tried to pull him back into the world, but he’s learned how to turn them all away.

    On his first day back, he meets Verso Dessendre; quiet, steady, with scars of his own and a beautiful streak of silver in his hair. A man who restores paintings for a living, yet struggles to restore himself.

    As they grow closer, Gustave begins to wonder if Verso might be right.
    Maybe some damage isn’t the end, but the start of something worth holding together.

    Summary

    Before Maelle leaves the canvas for good, she fulfills Verso's wish to be mortal but also makes him promise to look after Gustave. Even though he's reclutant at first, Verso quickly discovers that maybe it won't be that difficult to keep that promise. Gustave's company is not so bad and maybe he does have it in him to try to enjoy life again.

    A Verstave comic.

    Summary

    Gustave thinks about his proposition. Verso had already proven that he is capable. And he really owes him for saving his life. What could that man want? A place to stay, food, a regular shower? He could offer it no problem, and he would have a great assistant for it.
    “Yes, sure. What do you need?”

    “Would you be my husband?”

    Summary

    The first time it happens, it's a complete accident. The times after that, well... not so much.

    When the line between chance and choice begins to blur, Gustave must decide if he trusts Verso enough to put his life — and his heart — in his hands.

    Again, and again, and again.

    Or: Five times Verso takes Gustave's hand to protect him, from the world as well as from himself — and one time Gustave returns the favor.
